Art City invites local, national, and international artists to submit proposals to lead collaborative art workshops at our studio in 2016 and early 2017.
Art City is a drop-in community art studio located in West Broadway, a culturally diverse and densely populated neighbourhood in the heart of Winnipeg’s inner city. Art City is open free-of-charge for anyone (all ages), engaging an average of 28 participants per evening. The vast majority of those who come to Art City are youth between the ages of 6 and 13 years. Older youth, adults, and seniors also regularly participate in Art City programs.
Guest Artist proposals are selected by a Jury made up of Art City staff, Board members, and former Guest Artists. Selected Guest Artists will be supported in developing, managing, and facilitating their workshops by the Artistic Director, two Art City staff, and at least two volunteers per workshop. Proposals should be designed for a 5-day period, Monday – Friday from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Artists* will receive $1,500.00 fees for a five day workshop. Travel, accommodations, and per diem will be provided for selected non-local artists.
All selected artists will be required to obtain a Criminal Record Check and Child Abuse Registry Check, eligible for reimbursement by Art City.
Submission Deadline: Monday, February 1, 2016 (postmarked)
Mail proposals to:
Eddie Ayoub, Artistic Director c/o Art City 616 Broadway Avenue Winnipeg, MB R3C 0W8
